Todd,

What are your thoughts on the Bestop Sunrider, is it a quality piece of kit? How is the wind noise on the 202 freeway at 75 mph? Do the sides seal down reasonably tight to avoid water getting in? I’m thinking I want one for summer in New England as I’d be hesitant to leave the roof panels at home where it rains so often. Thanks.

I purchased and installed the Sunrider on my 4 door. Easy installation, but it never would seal near the right latch. This in turn caused a very loud wind noise at 20mph and rain to leak in. I disassembled it and reinstalled it and no help. Maybe a defect in the one I purchased as I did see a welding problem on its channel. Very good customer service. I just wish it would have worked. Maybe it's too early to buy so I am going to wait till spring and retry to repurchase.

Did you ever solve that?

During install, did you pull the plastic wrapper off of the 3m that seals the full rear of it?

Returned it and yes I did remove the protective seal from the rear.
